PyCon 2011 Call For Tutorials

[gslindstrom]

Hello, Everyone -

Here is the call for tutorials for PyCon 2011. The past two years we
have heard complaints from members of the Python -- and TurboGears --
community that we are "too Django" and this is your chance to help
out. I can't guarantee that your proposals will be selected, but we
can't consider classes which are not proposed! I'm looking forward to
hearing from some of you!

Greg Lindstrom
Tutorial Coordinator, PyCon 2011 (Atlanta)
===================================================================

PyCon 2011 will be held March 9th through the 17th, 2011 in Atlanta,
Georgia. (Home of some of the best southern food you can possibly find
on Earth!) The PyCon conference days will be March 11-13, preceded by
two tutorial days (March 9-10), and followed by four days of
development sprints (March 14-17).

The call for tutorial proposals is open until November 1 and we want
to encourage you to submit a class idea! Teachers are paid for their
efforts and it's a great opportunity for you to teach to a room full
of people who have paid to hear what you have to say?

Tutorials are 3-hour long classes (with a refreshment break) taught be
some of the leading minds in the Python community. Classes range from
beginner (Introduction to Python) to advanced (OOP, Data Storage and
Optimization) and everything in between. If you don't feel up to
teaching a class, you can always encourage your favorite mentor to
teach it! Anything Python may be proposed for a class and a variety
of topics is always presented but we can't offer what isn't proposed!

Get more information at http://us.pycon.org/2011/about/ under the
"Tutorial Days" section. Submit your idea on the site under the
"Speakers" tab. That's it! You could be teaching a class at PyCon
next March. See you in Atlanta!
